So I was thinking about Hero's Blade a card which a lot of people I know were excited about but never really came to anything, and I was wondering if a Bant coco legends deck would be worth a try (after the eldrazi population goes down anyway)
Does this seem like something that could be competitive? Or are there just better things to be doing if you go the coco route
Is there a 2 drop legend other than Origins Jace that is decent?
Not off the top of my head, but a 2 drop isn't what you want because you want to play your legend after Hero's Blade is out to get the free equip, 3 mana legends are the sweet spot for this deck idea.

I really think Khemba is the right place to start with this. If you want to go CoCo still, I think you go a 3rd color for either blue or red. I personally think both give you good options that would fit well with the strategy. White seems like a must given it's penchant for Equipment tutors and things that benefit from Equipments. Personally I like red for Alesha, Who Smiles at Death, Tuktuk the Explorer and Zurgo Bellstriker. They play really nicely with Hero's Blade.
I came up with a similar idea awhile ago and tried to circulate it on tappedout.net but no one really took notice. WG Day of Legends. It hasn't been updated in awhile.

A friend and I have taken an interest in this deck idea and have tried to build off of what you all have been suggesting. I have decided to begin writing a primer on Collected Legends. Further suggestions are much appreciated and I will post a link to the primer when it is up and running. Thanks for the inspiration all!
That last one is interesting, eh?
